Spring RTS Engine

smoth dont go emo your a good guy

Flame or not your spam of pointless posts contributed to that thread being locked, I think most people would agree with me on that. Even if they don't, it seems Decimator did, and he's the one that locked the thread, after all.

Also I don't see where I went "flying off the handle"

Regrettably this is going down the same old path that leads to locked thread. Seems the topic of discussion has deviated from what tombom intended and become more specifically a "smoth vs DemO" face off in your eyes. I'm not trying to attack you. Why do so many threads with you in them end up turning into troll central and eventually being locked, smoth?

So instead of all this dodgy crap, If you(not you tomobom the other readers) dislike me, smoth, then I say any one better go ahead and get it out now, in this thread, otherwise I am going to consider you weak! I

i don't like you. i think you are a whiny drama queen who confuses this forum with his social life, i think you believe you are a lot more important that you are, you complain too much, you annoy people by posting in pink for no other reason than it amuses you, you troll and flame threads that could actually be good because you decided you don't like them, you actually think that is good behavior, you refuse to acknowledge that most actual players don't share your opinions, you constantly insult people who don't like your mod by telling them they don't understand it. also, you represent a clique of people who seem to claim the spring community for themselves, even though the playerbase has radically different interests and opinions. you, fang and the gang insult good players just because they are good players, you don't like people playing TA based mods even though those exact people form the community you claim to want to help. you are completely detached from people actually playing the game, yet you want to represent them. no, i really don't like you. while you do help people out around here, i think you do more damage to this forum that you help it, and i would welcome it of you went and never came back.

well, so much for my opinion, offered because you asked for it. nobody will care about a random players opinion about you. what i would enjoy, though, would be if moderators reprimanded you for spam just as they would a newbie.

I think we all need to LURK moar, and talk less..

once again boirunner, you've got it spot on like the advertising your mod or whatever thread. stop stealing my thoughts! (the small out of touch <cough> EE superfriends) group of people thing that is. :p

HI guys.. Im off

Bye..

I wont make an irritating thread about it, im just gonna leave..

Have fun without me..

Fair enough, I consider this forum a social thing. Perhaps I should spend more time on the internet but I just seems like a social thing to me.

Boirunner wrote:i think you believe you are a lot more important that you are,

How do I come across that way?

Boirunner wrote:you complain too much,

Yep, I do not deny it, I am a super duper pessimist. I am working on it in real life.

Boirunner wrote:you annoy people by posting in pink for no other reason than it amuses you

How is that not a good reason? is it not easier to pass right over? Many people aside from yourself like the pink. People who are complaining about it are few and let's face it complaints are more readily issued then complements.

Boirunner wrote:you troll and flame threads that could actually be good because you decided you don't like them, you actually think that is good behavior,

This is not frequent, and according you and several others joining in lols is apparently trolling. Caydr was poking me with a stick and making fun of me yet, I did nothing? why do you not call him out? Or Jack, who does flamebait frequently on an obvious level?

Boirunner wrote: you refuse to acknowledge that most actual players don't share your opinions,

No, I know they do not share my opinion. Most people are not me and I am not them. That is like saying everyone is onboard for abortion. No, we will all have our opinions, that does not mean they cannot be open to debate or discussion.

Boirunner wrote:you constantly insult people who don't like your mod by telling them they don't understand it.

How? Many people who do not like my mod have not even tried it. I have asked many many times about why people do or do not like gundam. However, ultimately the answer is that they do not like it because it is not TA... and most of them will not try it. So yeah, many of them have not even tried it to understand it. However, I do not intend on being insulting. could you give me some links.

Boirunner wrote:also, you represent a clique of people who seem to claim the spring community for themselves,

agian, you make the mistake of lumping me into some hivemind. Seriously, where do you people get that from?

Boirunner wrote:even though the playerbase has radically different interests and opinions.

Yeah they like TA... funny how forb one of my "clique" made a ta mod... because we are A HIVEMIND... dude, seriously. It is ok to have different opinions but I like to debate them. Who knows the discussion may sway the person my direction or me to their's

Boirunner wrote:you, fang and the gang insult good players just because they are good players,

Do not put that on me, again, I am not and was not a part of that. So where do you get off including me in that?

Boirunner wrote:you don't like people playing TA based mods even though those exact people form the community you claim to want to help.

I DO NOT LIKE IT because the files are STOLEN which goes against the code of Ethics for ACM. You were not around for me lecturing about the evils of software piracy.

Boirunner wrote: you are completely detached from people actually playing the game,

yes and no, I am part of a smaller player base that is all. I do not agree with the majority of voices in this community.

Boirunner wrote: yet you want to represent them.

Did not, am not, and never intended on it.

Boirunner wrote: no, i really don't like you. while you do help people out around here, i think you do more damage to this forum that you help it, and i would welcome it of you went and never came back.

I left for a while and I did not like what happened in my absence, I watch people make fun of me etc and watch people make fun of my mod. I came back because one project developer decided to go way overboard over something that was being rectified as he started a drama bomb. I then stuck around with the intent of passing along what I know and helping others while I work on my project.

I'd rather you say what you are really thinking then all the pussy-footing that has been going on for over a month. I am not likely to change much on many of these points and frankly many of them are you just lumping me into some non-existent group. I do disagree that I *think* I am important, I am important I do help people.

Boirunner wrote:The post above...

Thing is... You're wrong. None of us hate TA. You guys get these weird assumptions about us and they are completely wrong. Did you forget that I put together Fun:TA? You wouldn't know this, but me and several other guys on TT will get together and play Fun:TA in compstomps fairly often. That was entire purpose of the mod (of course it's fun to play each other, but It's satisfying to put one in KAI's Pooper).

The only time I personally insult good players is when they're being morons and saying that people should listen to them simply cause they happen to be good at a certain mod. (AND BTW, I NEVER INSULTED RANDY FYI) Ask chapparal how many times I've yelled at him. Chap is an amazing player, but if he happens to lose he will start whining about balances etc etc (not all the time mind you, but most) and it's full of crap and deep inside he knows it. That said, he is a really cool guy and a great person not to mention a good friend. We all have our personality quirks.

To address another point, you and quite a few others (jack and steven come to mind immediately) are never reprimanded when you post pointless random stuff and derail threads, so why should anyone else? Fang and smoth, if you will notice, only do it when they deem a thread should die (not so say that it's right per se, but it at least has a purpose and is only occasional).

Regardless, I have not spoken to anyone since sunday as I've had a rough week, so I have no idea what's been going on internally. But that is my opinion.

Yes, smoth can be a little irritating when he's agitated and I get frustrated with him sometimes as well, but damn, he's a great guy, and he's a diamond mine of information and in many ways is a shining example of true friendship. I can't tell you how many times he's stayed up with me on TeamTalk till like 6 am to teach me how to do stuff. Lathan has done this many many times as well.



This brings me to another point... Our teamtalk channel is open to anyone, if you have that much of a problem with someone from smoth's forum, why don't you jump on some time and talk it out. We are all very nice people, but we have a relatively low tolerance for bullcrap on the forums, especially when we are trying to get something done.

Think about what I said concerning the teamtalk thing, that goes to everyone here. For that matter, if you are irritated about my maps being large, why not jump on teamtalk some time and talk to me about it. I'm probably the nicest and most patient person around (most of the time) on teamtalk and in general, but still, the point remains. It's not difficult to join the server (go to smoths forums for the info, it's stickied in the discussion forum), and as long as you are polite and not being an asshole, no one will be an asshole or impolite back.

Meh, tbh I'm a little sad to think this but... This post probably accomplished nothing

You once left this forum claiming that you were being trolled constantly and yet you do things like posting in a hard to read color just to annoy people. It seems to me like you're on the one hand trying to bring abuse out of people, and then acting the victim when it comes. If I were you I would think about why you're doing this, instead of just trying to get along with others. tbh this sort of thing is the main issue I have with you, otherwise I've seen you to be a pretty good guy. Same goes for a number of others who do this sort of thing.

wah wah im the victim here

How about we just forget that this ever happened?

Also, I can't speak for others, but I don't find the pink text to be particularly annoying.

rarspaem.

Or how about we stop exploiting character weaknesses. The resulting lengthy drama posts are more annoying than smoth's pink.

Quite frankly a lot of people should learn when it's best to keep their trap shut and not giving their two cents on everything. Or how to stay objective on the matter rather than going fishing with dynamite as the majority does now. You're like elephants in a porcelain shop, behaviour wise.

That's what I do, and I've never been flamed or banned or any shit like that.

That belongs in a pm not a forum post.

Now where's the dismissal of tombom as a paranoid crackpot? Or the parody threads?

This is all downhill. You should all know better.

I do that quite often, and I believe I haven't been flamed, even as being a newb and a phailure and asking so many questions.
